FROM

THE EDITOR

Thealleged abduction

of

HarryJoeTurnerin

Virginia,

reported

in

this

issue,

provides

a

microcosm

of the

problems

facing

UFO

investigatorstoday. Never has

"strangeness"

been;higher,nor

evaluation

of

credibility

more

difficult.

The

need

for

expert

intervention

by

specialists

in

various

fields

is

apparent

in

this

case

and many others

like

it. Although Turner

does

not have a good

reputation

among acquaintances, those

closest

to him

feel

thatsomething must have happened. Also, his report came in the midst

of

many

similar

ones

here and abroad. Is Turner crazy, or was he an

unfortunate

victim

of

inexplicable happenings, foredoomed

to be a

poor witness because

of his

reputation?

Many

of the

reports

come

from

citizens

of

good reputation. What

is the

answer?

As

investigator

Fred

Whiting

suggests, psychological testing is needed.

We

strongly endorse that

view,

along

with

the

general need

formeticulous,

professional investigation

of

these

widespread

and

perplexing

reports so that the true

causes

might

ultimately

bedetermined.
